John A. Gabriel Scholarship Award

Roseville Girls’ Softball League offers a scholarship in the amount of $250 or more to graduating seniors at each of the six Roseville High Schools (Antelope, Granite Bay, Roseville, Oakmont, Westpark, and Woodcreek), plus at least two additional “at-large” scholarships. Selection of the award recipient for each school will be made by the Scholarship Committee of Roseville Girls’ Softball. The areas of achievement listed below will be used by the committee in determining the recipients of this year’s scholarships. These criteria should be used as reference points to be incorporated into the application by the student. The recipient should be a student who sets a good example for her peers and who is looked upon as a scholar and leader in the school community. The following are the attribute categories to be considered during the selection process: 

PARTICIPATION -- Applicants must have been a member of the Roseville Girls’ Softball League for at least four seasons. Experience in other recreational leagues may count for some of the four required seasons.

SCHOLARSHIP -- A minimum of a ‘B’ (3.0 on a 4-point scale) grade average (un-weighted). Citizenship or behavior grades should also be exemplary. CITIZENSHIP -- Community involvement through volunteer work in a club, church, civic organization, school organization, etc. LEADERSHIP -- Serving in a leadership position in the school or community (i.e. student government, scouts, school club, civic organization).

EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES -- Active participation in one or more school programs (i.e. band, drama, athletics, government, etc.). 

GOALS FOR THE FUTURE -- A direction for the future (i.e. career field, education, etc.). 

Scholarship applications are available at each high school’s Career Center and need to be completed and returned to those centers by the School District’s deadline. Decisions on scholarship winners will be made and delivered to the applicant’s school. Announcements of the scholarship award may be made as per each individual school’s procedure; however, each recipient will be expected to receive her award at the League’s Closing Ceremonies.
